you should definitely see someone about that. even if it’s “normal”, and i’m sure other girls experience it and you’re not alone, but it’s not healthy and you don’t deserve to go through that. If you’re in school of any kind they should have free counseling services available. Please take care of yourself, people love and care about you. Dm me if you want or need to talk more. I love you ❤️

This sounds like PMDD. It’s not normal, but it can be diagnosed and treated. It’s possible to use variable doses of SSRIs, so you’re getting the most when you need it. There’s also birth control to directly address the hormonal conditions, and of course therapy. Talk to your doctor. You don’t have to put up with this.

I do have a therapist and am on antidepressants but every single month there’s always the few days where it just gets really really bad ☹️ I probably should bring it up tbh. I appreciate you so much ❤️

I’ve been on sertraline for about 6 years now and it has helped SO much with my general anxiety but this has not gotten better 🫩
